Description:
This stalwart Britrock quintet's swansong collection is a live document of their farewell performance before an enthusiastic crowd at London's Dingwalls. After emerging from the wreckage of Terraplane in 1989, Thunder soon built a reputation as a crowd-pleasing combo of rock traditionalists drawing strong comparisons with Bad Company and the Rolling Stones. But following an eventful decade, during which the band enjoyed substantial chart action, they've finally decided to call it a day. But not before unleashing this multifaceted diamond of a double-disc career celebration that's by turns funny, poignant, blistering and sensatio
This stalwart Britrock quintet's swansong collection is a live document of their farewell performance before an enthusiastic crowd at London's Dingwalls. After emerging from the wreckage of Terraplane in 1989, Thunder soon built a reputation as a crowd-pleasing combo of rock traditionalists drawing strong comparisons with Bad Company and the Rolling Stones. But following an eventful decade, during which the band enjoyed substantial chart action, they've finally decided to call it a day. But not before unleashing this multifaceted diamond of a double-disc career celebration that's by turns funny, poignant, blistering and sensational. The majority of the band's hits are covered over the course of two sets, both acoustic and electric, the former also featuring good-natured question and answer sessions between band and audience. From the strident sting of "Stand Up" to the blazing farewell of "Dirty Love", They Think It's All Over stands as a fine epitaph to an often overlooked band. --Ian Fortnam
